1968 Priscilla of Boston Wedding Dress Candlelight Silk Organza Chantilly Lace


This is a beautiful preserved 1968 Pricilla of Boston Wedding gown from famed Claire Dratch boutique in Bethesda, MD complete with original wedding gown box and a copy of the newspaper announcement with picture of original bride in gown.


The dress is an off white/cream candlelight silk organza and Chantilly lace gown fashioned in an empire A-line silhouette. It features a bateau neckline, long lace sleeves with buttons, a sweep train attached to the dress and a detachable chapel train. The bodice has an illusion top and we re-embroidered with lace which cascades half way down the front of the skirt and scattered onto the train. Also included is a matching chapel mantilla.


The dress does button fully but didn’t fit around the mannequin completely buttoned up.


There are unfortunately some stains, spots and age browning/yellowing. Most notably the browning occurs around the armpits. There are spots on the train as well as the gown. Included is a dry cleaning sheet which states these spots were not able to be removed. There is a small dent/rip in the box. Inside there are some seams which are frayed. However these do not take away from the sheer magnitude and beauty of this rare piece of history! The ensemble is otherwise in good condition with wear consistent with age and use. Feel free to use the zoom option as pictures are considered part of the description.


Measurements taken while garment is lying relaxed on ground (I provide hand measurements to ensure garments are a proper fit, so please check to avoid unnecessary fit issues.)
